I think it was called "Rocky's Boots" (since the circuit hooked up to a
boot that would kick different shapes off the assembly line), and it was
produced by on of the major ed software companies ... Broderbund,
maybe?  I haven't seen that one for years -- I don't think it ever got
ported to any other platforms, but I may be wrong.
